I don't have my Celica, and haven't had it since September 10, and probably won't have it until March or April.
 It's getting a twenty valve AE101 4A-GE put into it probably...though I'm seriously considering buying a 7A-FE from somewhere and putting it in, because my mechanic hasn't even started my wiring harness, despite his lies saying that he had. But the thing is, I've already invested so much money into the 4A-GE, including the engine, tranny, ECU, harness, and AFM, and the replacement parts such as my new clutch kit, JUN flywheel, OEM water pump, timing belt, idler pulley, spark plugs, plug wires, seals, etc. I'd take my car elsewhere, but I simply don't have the extra $1,000-3,000 that everywhere else wants to do my swap. I can't do it on my own, as I don't have the tools nor knowledge to do the swap. Right now I'm so discouraged that I've really stopped caring about the car now. The paint is already damaged from sitting at my mechanic's shop and getting hit from other cars, the car is sitting outside now in an undriveable state, and there's nothing I can really do, as I'm four hours away.

Well, I'll ensure that when I finally pick up my car, he pays to get what needs to be re-painted painted. If he won't pay, then he'll get to talk to a lawyer that I'll hire. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

When I was in town two weekends ago, I saw that the rear bumper and the area by the rear fender was damaged.
